God's Debris

A friend of mine sent me the link of this free ebook God's Debris.Its a short book of about 140 pages. (Even I was able to read it)

The crux of the book is contained in the first 60 pages.

/*********************spoilers********************/

The book discusses several things that were also discussed in some of the posts of this blog. Thus reading the book was a very exciting and a pleasurable experience for me. Infact, in several places it was as if I was reading my own thoughts.

The crux of the book is based on the following hypothesis: An omnipotent being has only one challenge, the challenge of destroying itself. (What a beautiful hypothesis). Read the book for the discussion of this.

So the author claims that big bang is really 'god destroying itself' and creation was caused because of this. Thus it claims we are all god's debris. Further it hypothesizes that we are all trying to unite and become the omnipotent being again. The books cites human' being's instinct to communicate as an evidence for this.

On the other hand, the book begins to drag after 70 pages and becomes montonous trying to "explain" everything using probability.
